Pros

namesake and discount for robots.

Cons

Petty and meticulous work environment. Everyone is micro-managing one another so much that deadlines and good opportunities to sell or market are being missed. Everyone is so dependent on this amazon acquisition that they are overspending and not giving proper care and attention to growing employees. It is truly a problem that many were given a sigh of relief when let go and many others are just searching for more opportunities to leave in the mean time. I had wished for a better everything or understanding of said 'culture' but it is just micromanaging and pointing blame. Most are covering their behinds or preparing to quit.
